Chapter 146 Rotten Meat

　　Seeing Captain Wu's commitment, Fang Yue felt relieved.

　　Apart from leaving a small number of people to guard the inn, like Tian Dan Zhiyuanwu, whose leg injury hadn't fully healed, everyone else followed Captain Wu out to gather information.

　　Meanwhile, Fang Yue, carrying the fragments of the fluorescent bracelet, went straight to the Qing Si.

　　Today's Qing Si was much quieter than usual.

　　"Ye Baiyi."

　　Yu Baiyi, who had almost been demoted before, happened to be going out and ran into Fang Yue, greeting him with a complicated expression.

　　As far as he knew, no one had ever been able to jump from one of the village captains to the position of Baiyi Qingwei (White-robed Azure Guard) in just a few days.

　　However, he had personally gone to Guyue Village and other places to investigate and knew what Fang Yue had experienced.

　　To survive in such a bizarre army and use Lord Han's power to repel the bizarreness was a feat of strength and luck that ordinary people couldn't match.

　　"Yu Baiyi? Perfect, I want to ask you, where is Lord You?"

　　Tian Erjun was busy managing the bizarrely possessed personnel infected at the Qingluan Tower and had limited time and energy, so Fang Yue naturally targeted the relatively idle You Sisi.

　　"Lord You should be having a meal at the [Good Food House] at this time."

　　"Thank you."

　　Fang Yue moved swiftly, entering the Qing Si and heading straight for the [Good Food House].

　　Upon arriving at the [Good Food House] and seeing You Sisi, Fang Yue was immediately stunned, subconsciously covering his nose and taking two steps back.

　　He saw her, as quiet and refined as a lady from a noble family, eating in an extremely cultured and unhurried manner... a lump of rotten meat with green mold on the surface.

　　The rotten meat emitted an extremely complex smell.

　　It had both the putrid and foul odor characteristic of rotten meat, and the chef had tried his best to use seasonings to cover up this smell.

　　However, the combination of the two was simply an epic disaster!

　　That mixed, biochemical-level strange stench almost made Fang Yue vomit.

　　Everyone around her also kept their distance.

　　If it weren't for You Sisi's identity as a Qingyi (Azure-robed), and people not daring to run away in front of her, the [Good Food House] would probably be empty by now.

　　But You Sisi acted as if no one else was around, picking up chopsticks and inserting them into the rotten meat, calmly and expressionlessly eating this lump of foul-smelling meat piece by piece.

　　A goddess!!

　　Fang Yue was immediately shocked, his eyes wide open.

　　His impression of You Sisi instantly changed.

　　Foul-smelling girl!!

　　From today on, she only has one nickname in my heart, and that is Foul-smelling Girl!!

　　Amidst the terrified gazes of others, You Sisi finally finished the rotten meat, wiped her mouth with a silk scarf, and stood up.

　　Looking around, she was immediately stunned.

　　"Ye Baiyi?"

　　Everyone's gaze immediately shifted to Fang Yue.

　　Some people recognized Fang Yue, while others were unfamiliar with him.

　　They watched You Sisi walk towards Fang Yue and be called out by him.

　　Those who remained in the [Good Food House] breathed a sigh of relief, their eyes filled with gratitude towards Fang Yue.

　　……

　　"What... what were you eating just now?"

　　"Green Mold Meat, a type of bizarre hunting meat that can cleanse the marrow and change aptitude while also increasing cultivation."

　　Eh... it sounds like it has a strong effect.

　　Fang Yue suddenly felt a little envious, but when he thought of the disgusting taste of the Green Mold Meat, he was really afraid that he would vomit before he could even swallow it.

　　From this perspective, Foul-smelling Girl is still very strong!!

　　Holding his breath, Fang Yue said sullenly, "That, Foul-smell..."

　　"Hmm??"

　　"...Foul-smelling Lord, have my merit points been settled yet?"

　　"It should be soon, I'll go help you check later."

　　Fang Yue really wanted to ask You Sisi how she could swallow that stuff, but he finally held back.

　　He saw You Sisi put two pills into her mouth at this time, chewed them twice... and then suddenly bent over and started retching with a "wah" sound.

　　The sudden reaction stunned Fang Yue.

　　So, your taste buds are slow to react??

　　Fang Yue quickly patted her back, a gesture that made You Sisi's body stiffen.

　　"...I'm fine."

　　When You Sisi got up, she explained, "Green Mold Meat is a great tonic for martial artists, but the taste is extremely foul. I take poison to numb my taste buds, and then I eat the Green Mold Meat. The two pills just now, one is an antidote, and the other is a refreshing pill to keep my breath fresh."

　　Fang Yue, who had been holding his breath for a while, sniffed the air slightly and, sure enough, You Sisi's breath now had a fragrance, as sweet as lavender.

　　As for You Sisi's retching, it was probably because she immediately smelled the stench of the Green Mold Meat as soon as the antidote took effect, so she couldn't help but retch.

　　Too hardworking, too hardworking!

　　Fang Yue couldn't help but ask, "Why not refine the Green Mold Meat into pills before taking them? Even if it sacrifices some of the effect, it's better than eating it raw like this."

　　You Sisi looked at Fang Yue strangely: "Because the pills made with Green Mold Meat as the raw material have extremely strong pill toxins, and the return is not comparable to the effort.

　　And if a large number of targeted medicinal materials are added during the alchemy process to ensure efficacy, remove the odor, and reduce pill toxins, the consumption of materials is so severe that you can buy more precious and effective high-level pills.

　　So, under normal circumstances, the most cost-effective method is to have the chef cook it, add heavy seasonings to remove the taste, and try to ensure the original effect of the materials."

　　So that's how it is.

　　Others don't have the talent ability of [Night Breathing] of a nocturnal war god, so they have to be careful when taking pills, weighing the pros and cons. If the accumulation of pill toxins becomes serious, they will die suddenly, lose their lifespan, and even greatly reduce their drug resistance, seriously affecting their health and causing a decline in strength, and other problems.

　　But Fang Yue doesn't have these concerns.

　　Just eat the pills, as long as it's not like last night's gluttonous binge of eating so many pills in one breath, the pill toxins can't even accumulate before being suppressed by [Night Breathing].

　　Pitiable, pitiable!

　　This world where leveling up by taking medicine is so cautious is too pitiable!

　　Fang Yue thought in a Versailles-like manner. Fortunately, he only thought about it in his heart. If he said it out loud, combined with the fact that he's not afraid of pill toxins, he might be hit by a mud truck one day when he goes out. In the game, that would be being stabbed to death with a sword, pierced through the heart.

　　"By the way, you came so early, are you here specifically to find me?"

　　The two of them walked and talked, and had already left the [Good Food House] for a distance when You Sisi asked strangely.

　　"No, I'm looking for you for something else."

　　As he spoke, Fang Yue spread out the pile of fluorescent bracelet fragments wrapped in cloth.

　　"Can you tell what this is?"

　　You Sisi frowned, took out a small fragment, and pondered for a while.

　　"Bracelet?"

　　"Yes, can you find out what material it's made of? Also, where is the material produced, who is the craftsman who made the bracelet, and... has it been engraved with formations or anything like that."

　　Fang Yue's series of questions left You Sisi a little dazed.

　　Seeing that Fang Yue wasn't joking, her expression gradually became serious.

　　"Did something happen?"
